The Brewers/Cubs "rivalry" is out of hand. Proximity makes it certain that there will always be enough fans of both teams at either game to create problems. The hatred makes no sense. We don't knock each other out of the playoffs year after year, or really have anything to be proud of in the last 1/4 century that we should feel special about. Instead of watching in peace, alcohol fueled stupidity wins out. One fan from a team will say something, then the response from the slighted teams fan, wash, rinse repeat. I fell into this after seeing a facebook post talking about how the Brewers, 155 games out from a meaningful game, had to be feeling the pressure of a slow start, and it would CERTAINLY effect their play. I responded immediately with a simple, concise, "Fuck you". Stupidity kept after it as there were posts back and forth which I reminded said individual that the Brewers have some serious injuries, but more importantly THERE ARE 155 MORE GAMES IN THE BASEBALL SEASON. I just don't get where this hatred comes from, we should hate the Cardinals more since they walk away with the NL Central instead of our respective teams.
The Masters coverage is doing a great job of having different experts chime in, and great coverage of ALL the players within a few strokes, but commercials this close to the end is simply unacceptable. I hate the fact that Tiger Woods was in contention. That man is a fucking piece of shit. We can say classier words, but anybody who is out banging whores and prostitutes at EVERY turn while his gorgeous wife raises children is a fucking piece of shit. I don't care what profession you are in, if you live your life like this I hope you get gang raped by a roaming pack of gorillas, or wildebeests, or anything capable of delivering a savage raping.
The NBA and NHL playoffs are soon to be underway, marking a great period in time for sports. Baseball is fresh and relevant, NHL suddenly becomes relevant and the quality of play increases, same goes the the pumpkin-pushers of the NBA. There will be great nights of TV, and the DVR will be expected to work OT to keep me happy. I will be flipping channels like a madman in between pitches, faceoffs, and free throws to keep updated on live action as much as possible. I am pretty excited to get into hockey and basketball for the first time this year. I find out things that real fans have known the whole year, like Derrick Rose is unstoppable. I love to see the teams that coast through the regular season and NOW start playing team defense and offense. This is basketball at the highest possible level.
